If you are talking about the C64 game, I have it on my machine right now. That game was so ahead of it's time that it's not even funny.

That was a great game. Not my favorite of all time but for its time, it was pretty strong. Even had a sequel, Eternal Dagger, iirc.

Both are abandonware. The emulator and 2 games are less than 100k (lol). Want me to attatch?

Eternal Dagger was awesome. And there's a C64 emulator that'll run it? Cool.
